Chapter 43 Money Ability (Kneel down and beg for monthly votes)

In fact, Joseph had already planned to open a bank.

In order to rectify a country's finances, banks are an indispensable tool, especially after the decline of the Royal Bank. France does not even have a symbolic "central bank", and the government's ability to control finance is almost zero.

In addition, the industrial revolution is about to enter its explosive period. During this period, massive financial support is needed to ensure that industrial development is not hampered.

Therefore, opening a bank is a must for Joseph, but according to his vision, now is not the best time.

As we all know, banks rely heavily on the size of their funds. For a bank with a capital of 1 million, no matter how well you run it, it will be difficult to outperform a competitor with a capital of 10 million.

Joseph originally planned to wait until more of his resources were realized before investing heavily in the banking industry.

However, the current financial provocations from bank capital, coupled with the possible government debt default, made him decide to speed up the process.

Fortunately, the profit situation of Paris Angel Company was very gratifying, even exceeding his expectations, which gave him financial confidence to a large extent.

All that's left is how to operate it.

As the carriage drove slowly, Joseph looked out the window at the trees and pedestrians passing by, silently sorting out the specific plan for opening a bank.

Although the banking industry in the 18th century was already booming, from a financial history perspective, it was just getting started, and the various shady operations invented by the financial giants of later generations had not yet appeared. For Joseph, France's financial sector was like Columbus's view of the American continent - new and full of opportunities.

More than an hour later, the entire plan appeared in his mind.

After repeatedly confirming the completeness and feasibility of the plan, he finally showed a relaxed look on his face and told Eman:

"Please send someone to notify Mr. Brent and ask him to come to see me as quickly as possible."

"Yes, Your Highness."

More than three hours later, Joseph returned to the Palace of Versailles and found that Brent was already waiting here - the dedicated manager, in order to rush for time, did not even sit in the car, but came directly on horseback.

Joseph first praised his high efficiency, and then recruited his own architects, painters, carpenters, accountants and others to the study and began to assign tasks:

"From now on, you have only one thing to do, which is to open as many Paris Angel franchise stores as possible in the shortest possible time."

He looked at Brent:

"You are solely responsible for this matter. You can use all my resources here to try to open at least three stores in Paris within a week. In addition, we will open another direct store in Reims."

Brent looked solemn when he heard this. Although according to the crown prince's previous requirements, the glass walls, booths, lights, and even store uniforms for the new franchise store were all ready, the walls and floors of the new store The decoration work will be very time-consuming, especially if multiple stores are doing it at the same time. It is simply an impossible task to complete in just one week...

Joseph saw his expression, smiled slightly, and said:

"You will receive a bonus of 1,000 livres for opening the first franchise store. If you open the second franchise store, you will receive a bonus of 1,500 livres. By analogy, for each additional franchise store in the future, the bonus will be 500 livres."

He looked at the architect and others again:

"Everyone will receive a bonus of 500 livres for opening the first store. Each additional store will increase by 200 livres."

With the added ability buff, everyone becomes a superman!

Brent's heart was beating fast and he made a quick calculation. If he could complete the three stores in Paris, he would get 4,500 livres this week!

7,000 for 4 stores, 10,000 for 5 stores...

If all 7 franchise stores and 1 direct store can be opened, his bonus will be a full 22,000 livres!

I have money for the second villa! !

He blurted out with almost bloodshot eyes:

"Don't worry, Your Highness! I swear to the Lord, I will never let you down!"

He waved eagerly to the architects, painters and others: "Don't be stunned, come with me!!"

The group of people bowed curtly to Joseph and said goodbye, then sprinted out of the crown prince's palace like a 100-meter sprint.

In the open space outside the Palace of Versailles, Brent grabbed 10 livres and gave them to the coachman and shouted:

"Quick! Go back to Paris, quick!"

Mr. Painter frowned and just calculated the amount of the bonus:

"...Three stores cost 2,100 livres... When all is completed, it will cost 9,600 livres! Oh, God! 9,600 livres!!"

His heart twitched and his breathing became rapid. He turned to the coachman and shouted:

"Mr. Brembo, use your skills! Quick!"

After everyone left, Joseph quickly wrote a few lines of words, handed them to Emang, and ordered:

"Please follow this idea and publicize it in all newspapers, salons, dances and other channels. I will give you 15,000 livres, which must be spent within a week."

Emang had never heard of such a strange request. He looked at the paper in his hand doubtfully and saw that it read:
